Ansible regression ansible.builtin.uri

Example role to demonstrate regression in ansible.builtin.uri module where the json dictionary is not returned when the status code is not 200 and the python interpreter is python2.

full details of issue here: ansible/ansible#79592

Documentation states the following about return_content key.

    Independently of this option, if the reported Content-type is
    “application/json”, then the JSON is always loaded into a key called json in the
    dictionary results.

The problem is no matter whether the return_content is true or false, if the Content-type: application/json is returned when the target system is running python2, and the status code is not something like 200 the json key is not returned.
